McCorry purring as dynamic Down take control

Westmeath 0-10, Down 2-17:

That was the view of Down boss Jim McCorry as his side hammered Westmeath by 13 points at Mullingar’s Cusack Park yesterday, a win that leaves them top of Division 2.

The Ulster side led by five points, 0-9 to 0-4 at the break, but sealed victory with two goals inside a two-minute spell in the second half.
